Good news for developers and software engineers who couldn’t join our onsite workshop “Getting Started with L4Re” because Dresden is just too far away: Our remote access format opens the introductory L4Re workshop for participants from anywhere in the world!
With our L4Re Remote Access Workshop we invite interested software engineers and developers to take their first steps with the microkernel-based L4Re Operating System Framework. Teams and companies worldwide that are working with or evaluating microkernel-based system architectures for their products can use our training as a convenient way to introduce their developers to the L4Re technology – without the travel hassle (and also, unfortunately, without the group dinner and the complimentary Dresden city tour).
The L4Re Remote Access Workshop provides a mix of interactive, lecture-style sessions and hands-on practical exercises, where you can apply your new knowledge. It consists of two compact training sessions, each with two half-day lessons. In this two-step program you will be guided by our highly skilled Senior Software Engineers who have been deeply involved in L4Re development for decades.
We tailored our L4Re Remote Access Workshop to help you get an easy start, familiarize yourself with this open-source software, and to give you hands-on experience. The workshop introduces you to the design principles of L4Re; you learn about core concepts such as capabilities and inter-process communication (IPC), as well as basic virtualization concepts. When finished, you will understand the L4Re system architecture, its isolation and separation capabilities, and you will be able to configure L4Re and write your first L4Re application – even if you had little to no prior knowledge about microkernel architecture.
-
Start working with L4Re immediately in a fully prepared environment
-
No local setup or installation required
-
Guided, hands-on introduction to microkernel concepts (IPC, capabilities, system architecture)
-
Learn remotely from anywhere in the world
-
Direct support from L4Re engineers during live sessions
Our workshop is perfect to get a first insight into the open-source L4Re technology. You don’t need to be an experienced software engineer, but for a good learning experience, you should have a basic understanding of how software and operating systems work. The learning environment is fully prepared by us, runs on QEMU and is provided via VPN. All you need is your laptop or computer with a Linux or Windows environment, and an internet connection. We are taking care of the setup – you can focus on learning and experimenting.
